Tehran, Feb 19, (ICANA) – Member of the parliament's National Security and Foreign Policy Commission Mohammad Saleh Jokar says the US officials are not after finding a solution to the current disputes through their recent offer of talks with Iran, rather they want to deceive the public opinion and impose their will on Iran.

"From the viewpoint of the Americans, negotiation does not really mean to be a negotiation because they expect the Iranian officials to obey their orders and succumb to their pressures while keeping mum," Jokar said on Tuesday.

"By offer talks, the US statesmen are not really after interaction, rather they are seeking to deceive the public opinion and impose their will (on Iran) and interfere (in Iran's affairs)," the lawmaker reiterated.

He pointed to the stance announced by Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei on talks with Washington, and stated that talks with the US is "meaningless" given the United States' continued hostility towards Tehran.
